a domain admin != admin user.  You'll have to show me
a log that proves smbd is giving root privileges to a user list
as a domain admin but not an admin user.  And if you do, please
send the evidence to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've got working setups that never exhibit the behavior
described in the original mail.  So I'm finding your claim
a little hard to believe.
